BY HOFER BRQ8.
LATER DEVELOPMENTS OF THE
DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.
Tho silent candidate on tho Bllont
platform refused to remain silent.
Parker, nominated on a platform
silent on the monoy quosllon sent tho
convontlon a telegram declaring him
self for the gold standard.
..-J REGARD THE GOLD STAND.

ACT ACCORDINGLY IF ELECTED
PRESIDENT."
That planlc was added by wire to
the Democratic national platform
aftor Bryan had been tricked Into
helping mako a platform that did not
Qndorso tho gold standard.
"THE GOLD STANDARD 18 ES
TABLISHED AS THE LAW OF THE
SLAND, AFTER BEING TWICE EN-
(DOR8ED BY THE AMERICAN PEO
PLE," says Judge Parker and ho Is
right.
Parker promptly recognized the fact
bat tho most Important thing about
tho Democratic pl.ttform was what It
lld not contain. Ho promptly sup
plied tho defect,
"Parker was ovldontly unwilling to
remain tho silent candldato on tho
tsllcnt platform and so ho took tho
nhort cut and MADE HIM8ELF THE
LIVE CANDIDATE ON A LIVING
ISSUE.
Bryan with whlto face and clenched
teeth nroso from his bed of political
slcknoss and proclaimed himself THE
BEAD CHAMPION OF A DEAD 18

Parker was unwilling to win by si

The cold hard truth must bo stated
allowed to have their full tay In
making that platform.

WHERE DOES PARKER FIGURE?
The great splutter and talk of a
few warped Democrat llko Boss Hill,
concerning tho probable success of
Judgo Parker may lead some people
to bolldve that tho Democratic nomi
nee will havo a walk over. A glanco
at tho electoral vote however will
quickly disabuse tho mind of any por
son who will take tho trouble to do a
llttlo figuring. Tho vote that Is quite
sure to go to Parker Is:
Alabama ....

Louisiana 9
Maryland 8

North Carolina 12

Texas IS I
Virginia 12
Total 159
There are In tho electoral college
47G votes, of which a majority Is 239.
It will be necessary then for Judgo
Parker to gain 80 votes, and ho must
get them somewhere from tho follow

BRYAN'S FUTURE COURSE.
The lesson of Bryan Is an Illuatra
tlon of practical politics and" the same
thing happens every day, only In a
smaller way. Bryan, onco tho Idol
and patron saint of the multitude,
today Is forced to yield the leadership
to men who accomplished his defeat
whon he hlmsolf was twice the presi
dential nominee of his party.
A dead politician Is useless, whether
he Is playing In ward politics or lead
ing the party forces of a mighty na
tion. 'Nothing succeeds like suc
cess" and when ever defeat enters a
man's political career he had better
step down and out, unle3s he has re
cuperative powers sufficient to regain
his lost prestige. Few men possess
that happy faculty), for when defeat
comes, the sting causes them to rail
and add to their waning powers.
Hill might be cited as an Instance
of a dead politician coming to life,
but Hill is a "tacker" and while he
may really be In the saddle apparent
ly, It Is more due to fortune than
through any act of his. Circumstan
ces mado It possible for him to as
sumo a quasl-IeadersKlp, that is more
spectacular than real. Hill did not
daro show his hand too hard at first
or that very thing would have led to
Parker's defeat.
vote for Parker, but he was not nomi
nated to be 'elected. He was used as
a tool by the trusts and tho gold
power to disrupt the true Democratic
party and make sure of the perpetua
tion of the graft of the money Inter
ests. Tho sensible, sane way out of
the present mess Is for tho whole
people to vote for Roosevelt."
A SUMMER CONGREGATION.
If the plan of Rev. Clarence T.
Wilson Is carried out, the congrega
tions during the rest of the summer
at St. Luko's Methodist church at
Newark), N. J., will be composed of
women without hats and men wearing
negligee shirts without coats or vests.
The New York Times says: Dr. Wil
son said today that ho had decided
nn the nlnn because ho believed it
would bo an Inducement to people to
attend church. He declared that a
minister could not expect to Impress
a congregation much with spiritual
truths when they were suffering from
bodily discomfort. I have promised
my congregation, he said, 'that I
would attend the services without
wearing a hat. I believe there are
scores of people who do not attend
church in summer who would do so
If they could como In comfort.'"
